We're excited to announce our next Data Talk, focused on unlocking strategic insight with Azure AI.

Discover how Azure AI Foundry transforms the way businesses handle unstructured data. By automating data curation, ingestion, and extraction, Azure AI Services dramatically reduce human effort while improving accuracy and speed. Through real-world project stories and live demos, learn how organizations are using AI to convert raw information into strategic intelligence and measurable impact.

Whether you're a data professional, AI enthusiast, or simply curious about how tech is transforming our world, this is the perfect opportunity to:

• Learn from industry experts 📚
• Connect with fellow data enthusiasts 🤝
• Engage in lively discussions 💡

BONUS: Enjoy delicious refreshments, including pizza and pop, to fuel the evening’s conversations! 🍕🥤

Need a little push to finally finish that dashboard, debug that script, or make progress on your side project? Join us for Shut Up and Code, a focused coworking session for data analysts, developers, and anyone working on data, software, or AI projects.

Bring your laptop, grab a coffee, and get some real work done alongside others who speak your language. We’ll start with a quick round of intros, set a timer, and then—yep—shut up and code. After the session, stick around if you’d like to chat about what you’re building or swap ideas with others in the Victoria data and tech community.

What to expect:

• A friendly, focused environment (no presentations or pressure!)
• Dedicated heads-down time to make real progress on your project
• Optional socializing and networking before/after the designated quiet time
• Great coffee and vibes at Nor. Coffee

This is your chance to kick back with other data enthusiasts—whether you're a seasoned pro or just curious about the field. There’s no agenda here, just good company and great conversation.

Grab a drink (alcoholic or non-alcoholic—whatever suits you!) and settle in. Whether you're here to trade insights, get inspired, or simply relax with folks who get your love for data, you’re in the right place. No presentations, no expectations—just a laid-back evening with interesting people.
